WHAT A POWERFUL GATHERING!

Imagine how hard it is to be homeless. Now imagine how much harder it is to be a woman who’s homeless. Many women experiencing homelessness cannot afford the simple supplies they need to manage their monthly menstruation. (Did you know that period products are not exempt from sales taxes in Texas and may not be purchased with food stamps?)

So after worship on Sunday, August 6, we worked with the good folks at Homeless Period Project ATX to stuff more than 1200 individually kits with donated pads, tampons, panty-liners, and individually wrapped feminine wipes to be handed out to women through local shelters and service-providers. Thank you to the more 50 folks, members and new friends of UCCAustin, who came to share in the wonderful work. Let's do it again, soon!
